> I hope they will one day. I said I'm fine with verbal credit if they don't have money,

This is quite disappointing, but I guess it is your choice.

Congrats on the write up, seems extremely serious, I hope Sourcehut and Drew paid you well for this.

Can one use column to support or build escrow type services?

Also congrats on the launch!

Have been using Temporal since 2025, congrats!

Agreed, I hope we all go back towards doing this.

Users don't care about Cloudflare and I think you need to go outside.

Either you're in a bubble or you're an AI or both.

How would Mozilla replace the $500M a year from Google to not be a business?

When these vibe coded projects realise that maintenance, security updates, API changes are still needed. Get ready for a massive swing back to senior software developers being in demand.

Playing software maintainer while many vibe coded web apps aren't built with proper software architecture or practices only makes the swing back to senior engineers being in demand a possibility.

Good luck to those who are building 600K-LOC vibe coded web apps with 40+ APIs stitched together.

Brendan.

First of all congratulations on your new job. However,

It is easier to just say to everyone it is about the money, compensation and the stock options.

You're not joining a charity, or to save the planet, this company is about to unload on the public markets at an unfathomable $1TN valuation.

Don't insult your readers.

Try lobsters and probably Reddit which have a hard stance against AI.

You're right in HN heading down the path in favouring slop, constant posts and startups about AI with now 'influencers' (simonw in particular) aggressively posting and shilling AI.

With the moderators knowing that these 'influencers' and their kind violate the HN guidelines every day by purposefully linking back to their site for farming backlinks.

It might as well be called AI news.

> I find it sad that a lot of foundational open-source software is created/maintained by trading/crypto/money laundering companies. But OTOH it's great that they at least contribute _something_ to the society!

React is unfortunately becoming more foundational than this project, and with it maintained by a company that was involved in the Rohingya genocide in Myanmar, the Cambridge Analytica scandal and so on.

This makes crypto / trading companies look like angels compared to what Facebook has done even though they made and open sourced React.

To that end, I don't see anything morally wrong with the former camp of companies supporting open source, (trading/crypto) since they didn't participate and amplify an actual genocide.
